    It’s like trying to boycott Nestle.

    Sooo, like… entirely possible with some effort?

      “Some effort” varies widely on how privileged you are to have wide selections to choose from where you get your groceries.

            You’re talking about food. Everyone else is talking about video games here.

              I’m talking about how surprisingly complex it is to avoid a diversified corporation, using Nestle as an example. Is this really that hard to follow?

                Except your point is entirely irrelevant when faced with the reality that video games, especially AAA video games, are a luxury item.

                There’s a major difference between avoiding cheap chocolate and avoiding video game companies. I can’t believe that I’m even having to dictate this.

                Edit: by the way, it isn’t hard to avoid Nestle products either

                    Chocolate, coffee, dog food, hot pockets — yes I’m aware of the many things Nestle owns. None of this makes your point more legitimate, these are video games we’re talking about. Food ≠ luxury item.
